Just stumbled on this place walking back from the supermercado and was really impressed. Cute patio area pulled us in and when the owner told us that all of their margaritas are made from scratch we couldn't resist. We tried the original lime, tamarind, and mango and they were all excellent. We had to try the food so we ordered the mole chicken and it was the best mole sauce I've ever had. Not too sweet and really nice spice. Definitely going back!

Great food. Lengua tacos were amazing. Some of the best I've ever had. The pork Al Pastor was also delicious. The tortas come on super fresh bread and have really tasty beans on them. I had the al pastor and it was better than the tacos Al pastors. This is a hidden gem. If you like authentic Mexican cooking with fresh ingredients, get in here. Eat. You'll be happy.

Great food and great service! The lime margarita was very good. Definitely one of the better tasting margaritas I've had. The chicken mole enchiladas had great, authentic flavor as did the carne asada and al pastor tacos. The waitress went out of her way for my daughter's food, which was so nice of her to do and very appreciated. It's hard to find good service these days and she really went above and beyond. There is quite a bit of seating available inside considering the size of the place and a nice patio area. While there was only one other table dining in when I was there, they had a steady flow of customers picking up take out and they were busy. We had a great experience and will definitely be back!

This is place has the best, most authentic and mouth watering mole. Their hand juiced margaritas are to die for and their gorditas and tortas are excellent! Very friendly staff too! Outdoor patio was inviting.

This place is top notch! The whole authentic thing is a pretty lame argument to me as to the fact that authenticity is pretty subjective, but this place has that wonderful authentic feel. It is also absolutely delicious! I have tried almost everything on the menu, the barbacoa goat is my absolute fave, but you can't go wrong with literally anything here. Best South of the Norte Americano joint in Omaha!
